That was fast, and will be fast, with an Episode 1 date in September. I was kinda expecting to get a "coming soon" splash after the credits roll on Captain Spirit, but here we are with the first teaser and a date a little early.

Captain Spirit is up, as is the Steam page for Life is Strange 2. The 5-part season is a $40 USD preorder with bonuses. For now the Steam page is totally devoid of story or character details, but I'm pretty sure we can expect all that to be added when DONTNOD starts actually showing the game in August.

A lot of stuff that I thought would anger the father or that did anger him didn't actually result in any dressing down or shouting beyond just saying "hey stop that!" from his chair. Things like shooting him with the nerf gun were actually a nice moment rather than getting him angry, which actually makes him more likeable rather than less. Also walking in front of the TV during the game seemed an obvious thing to avoid, but it didn't matter at all.

I would play BtS first, mostly because it closes out the Chloe/Max/Rachel content and keeps that all together. Captain Spirit is a prequel to the second season so playing that afterwards makes more sense because it leaves you hungry for more and helps you shift to thinking about who the new characters will be.

Putting aside the smartphone part for a second (ugh, whatever) that's totes Myau in the logo, which is maybe just as meaningless as the PSO logo having three planets in it, but... hey, cool, they remembered my main man Myau, that's neat.

Part of my brain sees the dude (?) in the horned helmet and wants to make a Lassic connection but nah that's probably more of a stretch.

A full mask instead of a half mask is totally a Judge look, especially with that style of horns, yeah. But if he's wearing a cape and holding a staff in his left hand...

Basically what I'm thinkin' is I'd be totally down with a mobile remake of PS1, it'd probably be easier to adapt to that format than the others, and Lassic's look is so stock 1980s he could totally use a makeover anyway. So it'll suck when this game turns out to be something totally different and unrelated.

e: ...that emblem on his chest is kinda in the shape of his staff, keep watching the skies, follow the meseta
